Help:Minor edit

Minor edits exist so that Wiktionarians can mark their edits as unworthy of interest from anyone else. It should be used only when the meaning of the page has not changed much, if at all. Dictionary entries are, by their very nature, short and succinct, so even changing a few words can have a major impact on the page, and in such situations it is considered bad form to mark a "major" edit as minor.
